Kindling a life of concern : spirit-led Quaker action by Kirk, Jack instant download

32 pages ; 19 cm, Friends speak of \"concerns\" as the spiritual promptings that come to us, revealing our own particular God-given responsibilities in a world that so truly needs our love and our service. When we yearn to act, help, or respond, how do we know whether that yearning comes from our own feeling of urgency or our own sense of obligation, or whether it is something more, something that the Holy Spirit is asking of us? Jack Kirk discusses how concerns arise and are opened to us, how we may test them, and how we may find in them a center of spiritual gravity for our lives. How do we discover our callings as individuals, and what is our calling as a community of Friends? Discussion questions included.--Publisher's description, Includes bibliographical references (pages 29-31), \"October 2009.\", Revised and updated version of: Creaturely Activities or Spiritually Based Concerns? published in Friends Face the World (1987)
